Donald Trumps ineffective leadership gravely worsened the crisis that we are in and he is now taking advantage of it to subvert and destroy our right to vote and vote safely. Request a ballot early. Vote early.

I love her music as well!!

(2,043 posts)Thank you, Taylor Swift, for that tweet! So happy to know that you are on our side!
My favorite Taylor Swift song "Mean" is an awesome anthem against bullying and applies so fittingly to the Bully-in-Chief currently squatting in the White House.

I am not really all that familiar with Swift's music, but I do like this video ("Get a Brain Morans" makes an appearance... lol):

(7,083 posts)with my daughters and her friend. They bopped and sang to "Mean" and it was so much fun. I bought a few CDs for my daughters and became a fan.
I love this appearance on the Tonight Show. It was impromptu and she referenced a memory of Jimmy Fallon's whose mother passed earlier that week.
I am also going to post a collaboration she did for Hunger Games. A really sweet song.

(7,083 posts)But this segment from Larry King's 2010 interview of Jon Bon Jovi includes an immediate, whole hearted endorsement OF Taylor Swift's talent and work ethic. At about 2:15 but watch the whole segment. It's short.
